Rugged and Durable
The HeartStart FRx performs where ordinary AEDs fall short. With an IP55 rating, it protects against dust and water—the highest available for public access defibrillators. It also operates in temperatures from 32° to 122°F and withstands up to 500 lbs. of force. Because of this, the FRx works reliably outdoors, on the field, and in tough work environments.
Low Maintenance
Simply power on the device to start the built-in self-test and confirm readiness. In addition, the FRx runs daily automated self-checks to ensure proper function. Its lithium battery lasts up to 4 years, so you get dependable power with minimal upkeep. Therefore, you can focus on safety instead of frequent maintenance.
Easy to Use in Emergencies
Clear voice instructions guide rescuers step by step through pad placement, CPR, and shock delivery. The prompts also adapt to the rescuer’s pace, repeating or rephrasing when needed. In addition, flashing icons and a quick reference guide add support in noisy or stressful situations. As a result, the AED stays easy to use even under pressure.
Pediatric Readiness
The optional Infant/Child Key lets the FRx adjust energy levels and instructions for children under 55 lbs. or 8 years old. With this feature, the same device works safely for both children and adults. Therefore, organizations save money by not needing a separate pediatric AED.
Smooth EMS Integration
The Philips FRx simplifies the transition to professional care. Its pads may work with EMS defibrillators, which reduces treatment delays. For post-event review, rescuers can press the i-button to give emergency personnel a clear summary of event data. In this way, the device makes hand-offs faster and more efficient.
